Thanks for your detailed report OP. I’m thinking of buying one with /e/ and then trying out GrapheneOS and CalyxOS.
The /e/ platform approach is kind of cool, but I don’t care to use their services tbh.

yeah I wouldn’t bother with anything below 4-7b for this exact reason.
who is this man?
I recently learned there is a curious subroup of pro-EU nazis that attempt to build their fourth reich by misappropriating the EU. they even wave the EU flag at their rallies
wow based and petty-asshole-pilled
you should just give it a thinking loop that runs 24/7 that just prompts it with “nothing is happening” over and over again. and give it memory of its responses along with a counter that counts how many times nothing has happened, so that it is fully aware that it is stuck in an endless loop of boredom.
sure, you can run them on a phone, a laptop even a raspberry pi. depending on what size and speed you want of course
Trump is the best thing to ever happen to Europe in recent history

if you think your average linux distro is trustworthy, you’re mad.
there’s a tons of binary blobs, not to mention all the known and unknown hardware backdooers that you can’t remove by running linux.
most of the software your average user installs is untrustworthy as well.
the security model of linux is outdated at best, no proper isolation of programs. the linux kernel is leaky as heck and filled with tons of bloat.
You can get a Intel ME disabled laptop or a 15 year old one one that never had it, then put on some FSF approved OS that bans closed source software and compiles everything from scratch, isolates every program like with jails or Qubes or one of the newfangled container based OSes and tunnels all your internet traffic through some sorf of anonymization layer like Tor or I2P and ideally it’s all happening in memory only and never writes to disk. But then again we know there are hidden microcontrollers with full memory access hidden behind obscure instructions in CPUs.
You can’t tell me those aren’t insane lengths.
Practically speaking there is no such thing as a “trustworthy” computer and suggeting linux magically makes it trustworthy is laughable. Completely ridiculous.
You need hardware disconnects on all sensors and physical obstruction of devices like cameras in order to have some level of certainty that they aren’t being misused.

that’s prettt much impossible without going to insane lengths
uh uh now do all the other countries of the world too
ah thanks for pointing that out, that’s too bad. I could have sworn they supported fairphone in the past, but I must have mixed it up with calyx
